Simple Woman's Daybook~#44

For today, Tuesday, August 2, 2011~

Outside my window~

the sun is shining brightly

I am hearing~

birds singing

I am thinking~

about my mom, who is struggling with some physical issues

I am thankful~

for my salvation and for my sweet family

I am remembering~

the fun Hubbie and I had with "S" last Thursday and Friday

I am reading~

my Bible and cooking magazines

I am going~

to run a few errands today

I am hoping~

those errands don't take very long  ;)

I am praying~

for "R" who is not feeling well

On my mind~

are some ideas for our new school year

From the learning rooms~

"R" and "D" are improving so much with their swimming skills

"S" is really doing well with potty training

Me? I'm still trying to figure out the art of couponing...

Noticing that~

I used to do a Daybook almost every week...but I have been slacking off here lately

I am creating~

this blog post :)

hopefully will be able to make a baby blanket soon

From the kitchen~

M~chicken tenders, mac-n-cheese, lima beans

T~spaghetti and meatballs, salad

W~chef salad (our faithful stand-by)

Th~cheeseburgers, fresh corn on the cob (hopefully!)

F~Santa Fe Chicken tortillas

Sa~taco salad

Su~roast with the fixins

Around the house~

the dining room is prettied up with patriotic items

and the school room needs some serious attention

One of my favorite things~

is spending time with my Hubbie and children

A few plans for the rest of the week~

swim lessons for "R" and "D"

church on Wednesday

having some fun with the kids

From my picture journal~

~on the water taxi at Inner Harbor, Baltimore~

~there's always time for a stop at Chick-Fil-A for a sweet treat!~

Thanks for stopping by today!
